Discover Eleven Magazine's clean water competition "Plastic Worlds"

Wednesday, Dec 12, 2018

Come and discover Eleven Magazine's competition 'Plastic Worlds’ and help clean up our water
ways and oceans. With a month left to register, there is still plenty of time to participate and submit your idea.

In this competition, you are asked to think of ways to fight the plastic problem in our
waters: from rivers to oceans. The challenge is designed with two keywords in mind, each
with a specific objective and site typology linked to it. The first is ‘prevention’, which is
linked to rivers and focuses on halting the plastic flow. The second, is the concept of
‘action’, which is linked to the oceans and asks to engage with the cleaning up of the
existing pollution. Between these two themes, there are infinite degrees of cross-
pollination, which you are also free to explore in your designs. For those who are
interested in a more comprehensive strategy, there is also the possibility of dealing with
the whole plastic pollution route: from river to ocean.

Ultimately, it is up to you individually to define what the scope of the challenge is and
what the outcome of this competition will be. Is it a structure, a series of structures, a
product, a vehicle, an idea, a new place, a strategy or a combination of things? You
decide.
'Plastic Worlds’ is open to all creatives – both professionals and/or students. Participants
can compete individually or in a team of up to four people. Each team is asked to register
and submit their proposals online by the 11th of January 2019 with awarded entries
officially announced online on the 11th of March 2019.

About the Organizers: Plastic Worlds is Eleven’s twelfth international competition to date. Since their creation in mid-2015, the challenges launched by this UK based magazine and creative agency have received great international success. Previous challenges have been exhibited in Europe and the USA, published in multiple international magazines such as the Architecture Review, the AJ, Dezeen, Archdaily and Designboom, and have been featured in Bustler’s ‘Top-10 Best Competitions of the Year Awards’ in 2015, 2016 and twice in 2017.
